Spotify is testing video-based learning courses in the UK.
The courses cover four main topics: music, creativity, business, and healthy living.
The streamer has partnered with BBC Maestro, PLAYvirtuoso, Skillshare, and Thinkific.
Free and Premium subscribers in the UK can trial at least two lessons per course for free before purchasing additional lessons.

I've been trying Spotify out for podcasts to replace Google podcasts. I had a mental block at first, thinking of Spotify as anything other than a "music" app, but, now that I've broken that block - I like it.

Regarding courses though - I'm not so sure. I think projects, homework, and interaction (e.g. with fellow students and instructors) are a big part of learning. I'll definitely check it out, and I hope Spotify delivers something good, but I'm a bit skeptical at the moment.
